ness of the International Sunday

resolution to substitute "the Sabbath"

red to the executive committee. After
some routine business had been dis

zation" was taken up and discussed in
ten minute speeches by several dele
gates from various parts of the coun-
try, the substance of whose remarks
may be summed up as an appeal
for more money and more workers
in the organization line. Although
the work is in flourishing condition

days session of the Reformed church

mittee on overture presented a long re-
port containing thirteen items. One Of
these was II communication from the
Presbyterian general assembly of 1886

able time. Japan is the special field

DEFEATING AN INVASION.
Advices from Sierra Leone say that
native warriors under three chiefs in
vaded the British settlements of Sherbo
and Sultyus, pillaging and burning
villages enroute, and killing natives
and inhabitants and taking 300 pris-
oners. On entering British territory
the marauders divided into two forces
and tried to capture the French fac
tory at Sulymot and the English fac
tory on the Manoh river, both of
which were stored with valuable mer-
chandise. Burnett, the English agent,
at the head Of native laborers and po-
lice desperately resisted the savages
who were compelled to retire after
three attempts, leaving many of their
number dead. They beseiged the sta
ton, however, for four days when the
gun boat Icaricus arrived on the scene
and landed u force Of marines who
quickly put the savages to fight. The
attaches OF the Frenchfactory repulsed
the attack upon them unaided.

A BRAVE ACT.
A Young Society Lady the Heroine.

A Young Society Lady the Heroine.
We learn by dispatch from Grafton,
this Territory, that a young society lady
of that place, named Miss Olive Sanborn,
is the heroine of q daring act. 1t seems she
was standing in front Of the postoffice,
when suddenly q runaway team hitohed
10 Q buggy came dashing down the avenue
at q terrific rate. The moment Miss San.
born saw them she leaped to the middle
OF the street at q single bound. and, to
quote from the dispatch, Z" seized the mad
dened team by the bits" Planting her
her feet on the ground, with her toes
turned slightly out, she. in the words OF
the dispatch, " threw the team high in the
air" As they came down she again seized
them by the brides, n in each hand,
and swinging the heavy and half-crazed
beasts around at each side Of her, like the
arms Of q windmill, she brought them down
on the ground at each revolution, one
striking on its side while the other was
above her head in the air with q hollow
thud like the sound Of two pile-drivers
at work together and striking alternately.
Some five or ten minutes OF this kind Of
treatment served to bring the frightened
and Infatuated animals to a halt and
calmed them 30 much that they both lay
fat on their backs gssping for breath.
Miss Sanborn then stepped back to the
postof6ce and inquired for her mail in q
calm tone OF voice and a captivating smile.
Pieces of the wagon, which broke loose
when the young lady jerked the horses
into the air the first time. continued to
fall for three-quarters Of an hour.-Da--

there was an Act passed last winter

more gentlemen of that State for the pur-

discussing the best route for such road
and the probable cost Of q preliminary
survey, two other gentlemen joined us
and soon informed us that their object
was to purchase that Nevada franchise.
These gentlemen represent Eastern mag
mates. They are, and for some time have
been, looking for q route for a railroad

Our citizens will notice that II they re-

be very soon decided. Cities are like
